Coffee shop comedy

Sitting in Costa one morning sipping a coffee as I was early for an appointment. Watched a man walk along and noticed that his trilby hat was too small for his head. He was wearing a suit, a blue Inspector-Gadget-style Mac that was too large and carrying a battered leather case that could have held paperwork. He ducked into the coffee shop, I assumed, to grab his morning Venti-Latte on the way to work, but out of the corner of my eye I noticed instead that he headed for the rack of newspapers that most coffee shops have instore for their clients, took down one, then headed for the door and on his way. The cheek!
